TestPointInShape


Tests whether a point lies inside a shape.

Name Type Description
inPoint Point2D Point the position of which will be tested
inShape Path Shape against which the position will be tested
outIsContained Bool True if point lies inside the shape, false otherwise

Description

The operation tests if inPoint lies inside inShape.

Due to inaccuracy of floating point representation a point lying extremely close to a path may considered to be on either of the sides of the path or exactly on the path itself.

Examples

TestPointInShape run on the sample data produces the outIsContained = true

TestPointInShape run on the sample data produces the outIsContained = false
